Don't Wait If Dawn Comes

Fallen on the hot ash of your altar
Fed with yawning rage I wish we met there

Stretch my weak body
Kill piles of thousands of feeble ones
Let it remain between us

Don't let me hide crying
Whip me tenaciously, let there be no shelter
Let me feel you

Torture me, tread on me, let me see
Let me sleep on frozen roots, on icy nights
Let them know it, too

In soft hands, in decaying souls
They should crawl humiliated, make the burdens even heavier
Don't wait if dawn comes
I wish we met there
Let me feel you
Don't wait if dawn comes

Don't wait if dawn comes
Let it remain between us
Let me feel you
Don't wait if dawn comes

Vivid tongues of flame, lick it
Sparkling eyes, flow, burn it
They shouldn't write signs on gravestones
